Description

  • Fix Flanger delivers the sound of classic flanging, with extreme control and flexibility
  • Fix Doubler provides lush chorus and rich textures to your vocals
  • Unprecedented hands-on VSO flange control, with servo motor bounce emulation
  • Three versions included: Fix Flanger and Doubler native plug-in, Fix Flanger and Doubler for Modular, and Fix Flanger and Doubler for Amp Room

In 1979, Paul Wolff formalized a vision which was turned into an exclusive limited edition hardware, that became loved among musicians and sound engineers.

In 2015, the Fix Flanger and Doubler is the reincarnation of this vision - a plug-in package that handles hands-on flanging with unique stereo widening methods, as well as vocal doubling with lush chorus and rich textures.

"Both units are very smooth and creamy. Fix Flanger is the first in-the-box flanger that sounds like real old school flanging with a new school twist. And the Fix Doubler adds a wonderful sonic quality and depth."

Ross Hogarth
Multi-Grammy Award winning producer, mixer, and engineer for Van Halen, Keb 'Mo', R.E.M., and Ziggy Marley

A Match Made in Heaven
The combined talents of Paul Wolff and Softube brings you a perfect union of vintage sound with the versatility of classic tape effects, as well as the usability of digital plug-ins, all in one package.

Double the Fun
The Fix Flanger brings you the sound of classic tape flanging combined with extreme control and flexibility. If you want to thicken vocals or bring richness to everything from synths, guitars or other polyphonic instruments, then the Fix Doubler delivers.

Out of the public's eye - until now
Both plug-ins are based on Paul Wolff's original analog hardware units from the late 1970's. These units were completely unique as they never made it into serial production. Nevertheless, they were used as a secret sauce in the New York studio Media Sound, producing artists such as Dionne Warwick, Aerosmith and Stevie Wonder.

Classic flanging re-imagined
The Fix Flanger is versatility personified - this flanger is capable of both classic guitar pedal style flanging with a automatically swept flange as well as direct interaction in the manual mode. A VSO mode features unprecedented hands-on control with emulated servo motor bounce and true cross zero flanging, just like a tape machine. Added features such as tap tempo sweep, unique stereo widening methods and selectable delay polarity makes the Fix Flanger the swiss army knife of flangers.

Doubling made simple
The Fix Doubler delivers texture and extraordinary richness to vocals and polyphonic instruments. The algorithms of the Fix Flanger, combined with a streamlined interface and Paul Wolff's unique Auto Double algorithm, makes it easier than ever to get lush chorus and rich layers to your vocal track. With Auto Double, you can get smooth doubling without flanging at delays as low as 3 ms, which no one has ever been able to do before.

Tech Specs

System Requirements

  • macOS Ventura 13, Sonoma 14, Sequoia 15
  • Windows 10 (64-bit), Windows 11
  • Softube account
  • iLok account
  • Computer with AU, VST, VST3, and/or AAX-compatible DAW host software
  • Internet access (for downloading installers and managing licenses)

Supported CPU Families  

Apple macOS computers with Intel Core i3/i5/i7 or Apple silicon (M1 or newer) CPU. Apple silicon is supported natively.  

Windows computers with quad-core Intel Core i3/i5/i7 or AMD quad-core processors with SSE 4.2 support.

Other Intel processors (Celeron, Pentium, and Xeon) are compatible if they support SSE 4.2 instructions.  

Supported Host Software (DAW)   

Any 64-bit VST, VST3, AU, or AAX (Pro Tools 11.0.2 or higher) compatible host application should work. However, due to plug-in host differences between DAWs—and our rigorous standards—we only officially test our plug-ins and instruments in the most recent versions of Pro Tools, Logic Pro, Cubase, Ableton Live, Studio One, and Reaper. Softube plug-ins are not tested regularly in non-listed systems. They will likely work if the system requirements are met. However, we cannot guarantee a solution for issues in unsupported systems.  

We strongly recommend using VST3, as some of our plug-ins have features that are not present in the older VST format. Supported sample rates: 44.1, 48, 88.2, 96, 176.4, and 192 kHz, in both mono and stereo. The most recent maintenance release of your DAW application is recommended. AAX DSP is not currently in active development. TDM/VENUE/RTAS are no longer supported. See our Legacy Installers.

    Great creative tools for the mix

    These sound great, adding depth to any track. I find them particularly fun to use on drums and vocals.

    Flanger is quite different

    Flanger's VSO dial is quite unique, and allows for interesting manipulation. The spectral response is quite different too in comparison to other flangers
